Police said the shipment was picked up by two men and loaded into a panel truck which then moved in Convoy with three rented cars to red Deer municipal Airport cab pen hold u earlier reported at Fenoid near this Community 80 Miles South of Edmonton.

The seven arrested Are All believed residents of Colora do. Question rigging alleged continued instead environment min ister Peter Walker told the commons the reports were essentially Correct is they related to at least two occasions earlier this he cried perplexed opposition maps. The argument May not be Over yet since the commons speaker has still to decide on a labor motion that the whole matter be referred to the com Mons committee on privileges. B u t the earlier accusations have clearly lost their original Force. The controversy arose from newspaper articles stating that ministers in Walker s depart ment had instructed civil ser vants to prepare questions on housing matters which could be asked by conservative maps. The newspapers said the aim of this policy was to prevent embarrassing or. Awkward questions from opposition maps. Labor immediately accused the government of involving civil servants in politics and breaching parliamentary Privi lege. Walker who. Volunteered his statement at the opening of monday s House session argued that it has always been parliamentary practice for ministers to arrange to have questions tabled by maps from their own party based on material supplied by officials. Walker said the housing Sec Tion of his department had or dered the questions to be pre pared last March when there had been two concerted opposition campaigns to pre empt the commons order paper with questions on housing and con he said labor maps had been trying to gain support in preparation for iwo by elections at the time.

Manitoba liberals shaky will be Able to run the Best Campaign in a decade this time. After All it is the first time an election could be expected. With minority govern ments whether they be progressive conservative or Liber Al you never know just when an election might have to be he says. The executive says he is sure the liberals will win the next election. The question is by How Many seats. Here the state of the Economy will be the deciding Factor. A e know that whatever party was in Power right now there would still be economic difficulties. But we think we Are doing the Best possible Job of handling them. It s just that some voters May feel frustrated enough by the economic woes to reject however in British Columbia where in 1968 they cornered More than 41 per cent of the popular vote leaving the new democratic party just under 33 per cent and the progressive conservatives less than 20 per cent Are sure the Sun shines Ever More brightly. They feel they can increase their current total of 15 seats by another two. This feeling is directly opposite to that held by the progressive conserva Tives who Are predicting a comeback with Between seven and ten seats in the West coast province. In British Columbia the fed eral liberals feel they May Well topple nip my Mark Rose in his Fraser Valley West constituency. He had a majority of just 770 votes in 1968. An other seat they feel is up for the grabs is Harold Winch s Vancouver East constituency. Or. Winch who captured just Over 50 per cent of the vote in 1968 compared to 35 per cent of the Liberal candidate is not seeking re election. Alberta is a relatively Barren place for the liberals both federally and provincially. They reckon it will remain so. But there will be changes. The liberals hold Only four of Alberta s 19 Federal seats. They see two seats threatened that of agriculture minister Bud Olson in Medicine hat and Pat Mahoney in Calgary South. Ironically both these men Are two of the most outstanding Western Canadian members in the House of commons. Or. Mahoney parliamentary Secre tary to finance minister Edgar Benson has been linked closely with the government s taxation Reform measures. They Don t go Down Well in the Oil capital. However the liberals believe they could pick up a seat in both Edmonton and Calgary. Rural Alberta offers Little Hope for More gains. In Saskatchewan it s Bleak they figure they will be Lucky to hold wheat Board minister Otto Lang s Saskatoon hum Boldt seat. Or. Lang had a majority of Only 559 votes in 1968 and a vigorous fight by both the progressive conservatives and the new democrats is expected. When it conies to Manitoba they Eye Only Robert Simpson s pc held seat in Churchill As a possible gain. But they expect to see a Cou ple of their seats they won t say which in close danger of being lost. Liberal members of Parlia ment from Manitoba Are Gerald r. Cobbe Joseph a. Quay St. E b Osier Winnipeg South Hon. James Richardson Winni Peg South and Mark g. Smer Chanski Provencher the liberals increased their share of the popular vote in Manitoba from in 1965 to in 1968. As with the rest of the Prairie provinces its the Farmers who worry the Liber als. And they can t understand Why. Says the Liberal executive we be Bent Over backwards to try and give Good policies for the Farmer. We be worked Damn hard at it. But every time we do something for them they turn around and kick us in the Teeth it s very frustrating i m telling Darmstadt West Ger Many _ Frankenstein Castle made famous by Book and mov ies about the monster has had a million face lifting.
